BROKEN HOMES - Radio Edit

Abandoned shop, no civil school in sight Broken TV, cartoons, my only light
Bounced from relatives, none cared to stay Streets became my teacher, crime my only way
No pats on the back, just cops on my track Tryna find peace in a world that's pitch black
They say you understand when you're older But I'm still a kid, don't know if I'll let go

Say goodbye to the old me, we ain't friends no more
You don't know me, I could die any moment If I do just remember this
First time behind bars, cold steel and concrete Lost in the system, wonder if I'll ever be free
Out again, but the cycle just repeats Baby going out, gotta provide on these streets

Second stick, harder time moving slow Fighting to stay connected as my child starts to grow
They say you understand when you're older But I'm still a kid, don't know if I'll let go
Say goodbye to the old me, we ain't friends no more
You don't know me, I could die any moment If I do just remember this

Finally seen clear, gotta break this chain For my kid's future, I'da gotta change the game
No more chasing approval from those who don't care
Found God within, learned to accept myself, I swear
It's a struggle daily, but I'm pushing through Building a happy home that's long overdue

In this game, the lesson's in your eyes to see
I've been a child, no silver spoon in sight Broken TV, cartoons my only light
Bows to relatives, none cared to stay Streets became my teacher, crime my only way
No pats on the back, just cops on my track Trying to find peace in a world that's pitch black

They say you understand when you're older But I'm still a kid, don't know if I'll let go
Say goodbye to the old me, we ain't friends no more
You don't know me, I could die any moment If I do just remember this
First time behind bars, cold steel and concrete

Lost in the system, wondering if I'll ever be free
Loud and bare, but the cycle just repeats Baby born now, got a profile on these streets
Second step hard, time moving slow Fighting to stay connected as my child starts to grow
They say you understand when you're older But I'm still a kid, don't know if I'll let go

Say goodbye to the old me, we ain't friends no more
You don't know me, I could die any moment If I do just remember this
Finally see clear, gotta break this chain From my kid's future, I gotta change the game
No more chasing approval from those who don't care Found God within, learned to accept myself, I swear

It's a struggle daily, but I'm pushing through Building a happy home that's long overdue
In this game, the lessons in your eyes can see
Though things change, the future's still inside of me
Remember that tomorrow comes after the dark So you'll always be in my heart

With unconditional love, turn this house into a happy home
Finally made it out, got a place to call
In this game, the lessons in your eyes can see
Though things change, the future's still inside of me

Remember that tomorrow comes after the dark
So you'll always be in my heart
Thank you for watching
